DockingManager using Prism

Hi,

i would like to use the DockingManager with Prism.
i found this old Thread: https://www.syncfusion.com/forums/101794/dockingmanager-using-prism-sample
This is already a start but it crashes if you dock some views to different positions.
I think it is the dockingAdapter. Do you have a newer and more sophisticated sample? Maybe similar to Lagunas dockingAdapter: to http://brianlagunas.com/xamdockmanageran-updated-prism-region-adapter/

Best regards,
Jan

Dear Durga,

Thank you. But i can still crash it. For example fix the toolbox(picture 1). Then tak the solutionexplorer and dock it on top of the toolbox( picture 2). If you then try to take both, toolbox and solutionexplorere, dock it to the right the program crashes( picture 3- sorry it is in german)

Also the cancel button when the dockingmanager is asking to open a "new Tab Group" isn't working. The program doesn't crash but just stop responding.

Best regards,
Jan

Hi Jan, 

Query 1 : But i can still crash it. For example fix the toolbox(picture 1). Then tak the solutionexplorer and dock it on top of the toolbox( picture 2). If you then try to take both, toolbox and solutionexplorere, dock it to the right the program crashes( picture 3- sorry it is in german). 

We have tried to reproduce the reported exception in our end with our latest version assemblies. But we were unable to reproduce the issue. On further analyzing we found that some developers facing of same kind of crash(while drag and drop), when using 2017 with Windows10 update.    

  
Based on the suggestion in MSDN forum, the reported exception can be resolved by disabling "UI Debugging Tools for XAML" option in VS2017. Please follow the below steps to disable the XAML debugger.   

1. Select the Visual Studio Options from the menu (Tools -> Options)   
2. Select General under Debugging    
3. Uncheck Enable UI Debugging Tools for XAML 

If issue still persist please provide below details, 

  1. Share the Syncfusion version details which is used in your application currently.
  2. Share the stack trace details of the exception because the error message in screenshot is in german language, we couldn’t find the exact cause the issue with that error message.
 
Query 2: Also the cancel button when the dockingmanager is asking to open a "new Tab Group" isn't working. The program doesn't crash but just stop responding. 

We have checked your query “New Tab group” creation is not working properly with latest version. When we click on the “Cancel” menu item, it will not create new group. If the “New Tab group” item is clicked that tabitem will be arranged horizontally or vertically. We were unable to reproduce the reported “The program doesn't crash but just stop responding” issue while creating new tab group.  Please find the demo from below location, 


If we have misunderstood your query, please get back to us issue reproducing video along with replication steps. This would help us to provide solution at earliest.
